2003 Vibe GT window problems?

Post by kng1994 »

I have a couple of problems/concerns, and I know someone can help me:1) Excessive wind noise. Any way to seal it out?2) Clanging noise when closing all 4 doors. This noise pierces my eardrums! The only time I don't hear it is when the doors are closed very gently.3) Windows seem loose in their tracks. I can actually move all 4 windows back-and-forth about 5/8".Any ideas? Maybe the after-effect of an inexpensive car, dumb luck, or the product of a first-year new model? I bought it used in November '07 with 64,000 miles on it. It now has 88,000.BTW- I just paid off my 4 year loan in 16 months! As of TODAY, the Vibe is ALL MINE!

there's a problem with the bolt in the regulator. There's a recall for it, but truthfully the recall work didn't really take care of the odd rattle when I close the door. I just make sure my window is all the way up before I ever shut the door.thread about the problem/recall: http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=28290
